As promised some more pictures in a gallery of the Vragenderveen with the watchtower. Really amazing view over the bog, which covers quite a large area. They even got Crane birds in here, wonderful to see them. Don’t know whether i’ll be able to catch them on camera though as they’re very much secluded

Vragenderveen is a bog close to the town of Winterswijk. The bog has 3 names, but it’s one big natural area. I was surprised at the size of it, seeing it from a watchtower which reaches approximately 15 meters in height. A photograph from on top of the platform will be posted soon, but first one from ground level with the late sunlight shining through the trees.

After i had a temporary break from photographing, i started off one late evening trying to capture the sunset. It’s still difficult for me to find the exact right settings of the camera for those moments, but its always good to be out in the open to explore nature, the camera and the possibilities. So it’s not perfect, but i did like the colors in the sky that night 🙂
